[Effect of plasmapheresis on plasma hormone levels in patients with hereditary hypercholesterolemia].
It is shown that plasmapheresis in the volume of 30-46 ml/kg using 2997 cellular separator (IBM) does not significantly reduce testosterone, estradiol, aldosterone, parathyroid hormone and calcitonin concentrations. The initially high level of insulin and C-peptide was reduced, angiotensin-I concentration lowered and somatotropic hormone concentration doubled. It is suggested that plasmapheresis stimulates lipolytic and anabolic processes in the organism.
